These observations lead us to predict that structural genomic variants are as important as SNPs, short tandem repeats (STRs) and other small changes in their contribution to genome variation. 2006, Lars Feuk et al., “Structural variation in the human genome”, Nature, 7:85
We estimated that the following percentage of elements were correctly assembled: 95.4% of alpha satellites; 91.5% of human satellites 2 and 3; 97.7% of segmental duplications (SDs); 94.3% of variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs); 94.2% of short tandem repeats (STRs); and 98.8% of all human repeats²⁶. 2023 May 11, Wen-Wei Liao, Mobin Asri, Jana Ebler, et al., “A draft human pangenome reference”, in Nature, volume 617, →DOI, page 313:
